Poison does not always enter you through the food that you eat or what you drink. Just a thought, an idea, an identity, an emotion can poison your entire life.
毒药不仅仅是通过你吃进的食物或者你喝进的水侵入你。仅是一个念头、一个观点、一种身份认同、一个情绪都能毁灭你的整个生命。

Walking Light
轻装徒步
If you want to walk up the mountains, the lighter your baggage is, the better. Even if you are not willing, as you slowly huff and puff up the mountain, you will throw away the baggage. You decide what you want to throw. I will not tell you. But whatever is excess baggage, please throw it because going up the mountain with excess baggage is going to be very painful. Walk light, because the air is thin, and you cannot walk if you are heavily laden. Tonight, before you go to bed, sit quietly for at least five minutes by yourself with your eyes closed and just see all the things you have gathered since your childhood – in thoughts, in emotions, in things, in people. Whatever you think is excess baggage, throw it out of the tent, and tomorrow morning we will walk.
如果你想徒步爬山,你的行李越轻越好。即使你不愿意,随着你一步步喘着气上了山,你也会扔掉一些行李。你来决定你想扔掉什么。我不会告诉你。但是任何超重的行李,请扔掉它们,背着它们上山会非常累。请轻装徒步,因为空气稀薄,并且如果你过于负重你就无法行走。今晚,在你睡觉之前,独自一人安静地坐一会,至少五分钟,闭上眼睛,看看自从童年起你所积累的一切——想法、情感、物、人等等。任何你认为是不必要的行李,请丢在帐篷外,明早我们一起走。

If you learn to laugh at your own stupidity, all the rubbish in you will turn into manure very fast. And manure is good for growth.
如果你学会嘲笑自己的愚蠢,你内部的垃圾会很快变成肥料。而肥料有利于成长。

Peace is not the highest goal in life. It is the most fundamental requirement.
平和不是生活中的最高目标。它是最基本的要求。
Conflict in the world is an outer manifestation of the human mind. In bringing a sense of ease to human mind, we shall know the Power of Peace.
世界上的冲突是人类头脑的一种外在显化。在给人类头脑带来轻松感时,我们将知晓平和的力量。

Health is not just absence ofdisease but a wholeness that involves physical, mental, and spiritual wellbeing.
健康不仅仅是没有疾病,而是一种包括了身体、心理和精神福祉的一个整体。

So what you need to manage is your energies. Because life is a certain amount of energy. It's not limitless, but it can be enhanced. If you function at one level of energy, what you do in ten years’ time, if you function at a different level of energy, the same thing you can do in one year's time. So if both people live for hundred years in terms of impact and profoundness of experience, one has lived for a thousand years, another has lived for hundred miserable years. So this is all what you can do.
所以你需要管理的是你的能量。因为生命是一定量的能量。它不是无限的,但它能被提升。如果你在某个能量水平上运作,你用十年做的事,如果你在不同的能量水平上运作,同样的事你能够在一年内完成。所以如果两个人都活一百年,从影响力和体验的深度来说,一个人活了一千年,另一个人活了痛苦的一百年。所以这才是你能够做的。

You can perceive life at its best only when you are at ease, not when you are dead serious.
只有当你轻松自在时你才能感知到生命的最佳状态而不是当你非常严肃的时候

Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear - not absence of fear.
勇敢并非没有恐惧,而是克服恐惧,战胜恐惧。

The idea of love is not to create pain, though a lot of poetry about pain has been written. The reason why you go into love is because it is supposed to bring you blissfulness. Love is not the goal; blissfulness is the goal. People are mad about falling in love with someone, though they have been wounded and bruised any number of times, because when they thought they were in love, there was a little bit of blissfulness in them. Love is just a currency for blissfulness. Right now, that is the only way most people know how to be blissful.
爱不是要创造痛苦的,虽然人们写了很多诗歌是关于爱的痛苦。你会进入爱是因为它本该为你带来喜悦。爱不是目的,喜悦才是。人们总是渴望陷入爱河,即便他们已经受过很多次伤。因为当他们觉得自己在爱里时,他们会有一点幸福感。爱只是喜悦的一种手段。现在,它是大多数人获得喜悦的唯一手段。
20220413
there is a way to be blissful by your own nature. If you are blissful, being loving is not a problem; you will anyway be loving. Only when you are seeking blissfulness through love, then you are very selective about whom to be loving with. But when you are blissful, whatever you see, you can be loving with that because there is no fear of entanglement. When there is no fear of entanglement, only then you will know involvement with life.
有一种方式,让你的本性自发地喜悦。如果你是喜悦的,变得有爱就不是问题,无论怎样你都是有爱的。只有当你想通过爱获得喜悦时,你才会挑剔去爱谁。但是当你本身就很喜悦,不管你看到什么,你都会对它很有爱,因为这其中没有纠缠的恐惧。只有当纠缠的恐惧不在时,你才会知晓对生命的投入。

We can manufacture whatever we want within ourselves - joy or misery, fear or love, anxiety or ecstasy.
我们可以在自己内在制造任何我们想要的东西-快乐或痛苦、恐惧或爱、焦虑或狂喜。

Keep Things Aside
小贴士5:把事情放下
Just do this before you go to bed. In the last three minutes, keep aside everything that you have gathered – the body, the content of the mind, and the small things. Do not ignore small things; these small things are big things. I have seen how people are carrying their own private pillow because it is very important. Your pillow, your footwear, if you have relationships, everything that you have gathered – keep it aside and sleep.
在你入睡前只是做这件事。在最后那3分钟里,放下你所收集的一切——身体、大脑里装的东西、还有所有小事情。不要忽略小事情;这些小事情也很重要。我见过人们如何带着他们自己的专用枕头,因为它很重要。你的枕头、你的鞋子、你的人际关系(如果有的话)、所有你收集的一切——把它们都放下再睡觉。

The whole existence is vibration. and so are thoughts. If you generate a powerful thought, it shall become a reality.
整个存在就是振动,思想也是。如果你产生出一个强大的思想,它就会成为现实。

Looking for Something More?
寻找更多?
All other creatures know they are here to live. It is just that, for them, living means eating, sleeping, reproducing, and dying – their life is complete. Once you come as a human being, you can eat as much as you want, sleep as much as you want, you can reproduce as much as you want – still, somehow life is not complete. The life within you is longing for something else. If that “something else” does not happen, you feel incomplete.
所有其他生物都知道它们在这里是为了生活。只不过是,对它们来说,生活意味着吃、睡、繁殖和死去——它们的生命就完整了。一旦你生而为人,你就想吃多少吃多少,想睡多久睡多久,想生多少生多少——可是,生命并不完整。你的内在生命渴望着另一些东西。如果“另一些东西”还未发生,你就会感觉不完整。

Sadhguru gives us four simple and effective tools to take charge of the mind, overcome anxiety, and make our journey of life effortless.
萨古鲁给予我们四种简单有效的工具,以掌控头脑,对治焦虑,让我们的人生之旅毫不费力。
#1 Do Your Present Well
#1 过好当下
Sadhguru: Our mind is a tremendous gift where it remembers vividly every experience and every information that comes our way. Well, this can be transformed into a phenomenal imagination. But if you lose control over your imagination, if you lose the discrimination as to what is imagination and what is reality; what is future, what is present and what is past; then (Laughs) your mind will become your greatest enemy. Most human beings are not suffering life. They are just suffering their memory and their imagination. What happened ten years ago, they still suffer. What may happen day after tomorrow, they already suffer.
Sadhguru(萨古鲁):我们的头脑是一个了不起的天赋,它可以栩栩如生地记得,我们经历的每个体验和每条信息。这可以被转化为非凡的想象。但如果你失去对想象的控制,如果你分不清什么是想象,什么是现实;什么是未来,什么是现在,什么是过去,那么你的头脑将成为你最大的敌人。大多数人不是因为生活受苦,他们只是因为自己的记忆和想象受苦。十年前发生的事情,他们还在为之受苦,后天可能会发生的事情,他们已经在为之受苦。
20220424
This is not about life. This is about lack of control over two most fantastic faculties that human beings have a vivid sense of memory and a fantastic sense of imagination. Do not worry about your future. If you do your present well, future will naturally blossom. We can only work with what's on our hands right now (Laughs). You cannot work with what's on your mind. You can plan for what's on your mind, but you cannot do anything about it. You can only act in the present moment. You can only handle what is there right now.
这与生命无关。这是因为无法掌控人类最伟大的两种能力:栩栩如生的记忆,以及卓越的想象。不要担心你的未来,如果你过好当下,未来自然会绽放。你只能处理当前手上的事情(笑),你不能处理头脑里的事情。你可以为头脑里的事情做计划,但你对它做不了什么,你只能在当下行动,你只能处理当前的事情。
20220427
You have only two kinds of sufferings: physical suffering and mental suffering. If you maintain a little distance between you and your mind, this is the end of suffering. This mind is a tremendous possibility, but most human beings are using it as a misery manufacturing machine. I even see that today, for whatever reasons, suffering seems to be popular. When someone talks about pain, people clap their hands; when someone talks about joy, people laugh at them.
你只有两种痛苦:身体上的痛苦和头脑上的痛苦。如果你和你的头脑保持一点距离,这就是痛苦的终结。这个头脑是一个巨大的可能性,但大多数人都把它用作制造痛苦的机器。如今我甚至看到,不知为何,苦难似乎很受欢迎。当有人谈论痛苦时,人们会拍手;而当有人谈论快乐时,人们会嘲笑他们。
So do not romanticize your suffering – it is not a great thing. And you are doing it yourself. Whether you are miserable or joyful right now is entirely your choice. Other people can create comfortable or uncomfortable situations only on the outside. Suffering is entirely your making. Other people can create situations, they cannot make you or me suffer.
所以不要把你的痛苦赋予浪漫色彩——这不是一件好事。而且都是你自找的。无论你现在是痛苦还是快乐,这完全是你的选择。其他人只能在外在创造舒适或不舒适的情境,痛苦完全是你造成的。其他人可以创造情境,他们无法让你我受苦。

Sadhguru: Both the neurological and energy systems branch out in a big way between the shoulder blades and above. So, keeping the neck region in a good condition is very important. Within 3-4 minutes of doing these neck practices, you will distinctly see that you are much more alert. There is a higher level of neuronal regeneration, and memory and intellectual sharpness also improve.
Sadhguru(萨古鲁):人的神经和能量系统在肩胛骨之间及以上的部分都有丰富的分支。因此,保持颈部区域的良好状态非常重要。花3到4分钟时间活动颈部,你将明显看到,你会变得更有觉知,而神经的再生、记忆和智力的敏锐度也将得到提升。
20220429
#8 Tune Up Your Insight
#8 提升你的洞察力
Sadhguru: Insight means you pay attention to life around you in such a way that you are able to see things that most people cannot see. If there is no insight, there is nothing to follow and toil for. Mediocrity can be transformed into extraordinary activity, only when there is a deep insight into something.
Sadhguru(萨古鲁):洞察力意味着你对周遭的生命足够关注,因而能看到大部分人所看不到的东西。没有洞察力,就没有值得追随和为之奋斗的东西。只有对某个事物有深刻洞察时,平庸才可以转变为超凡。
#9 Find Your Inspiration
#9 让自己感受到被鼓舞
Sadhguru: Another important dimension is to constantly be inspired. Look at the reason why you are doing what you are doing and see the larger dimension of it, the contribution you make through every little thing you do in your life. Every action that human beings perform is a contribution to some dimension of this world. Whatever you may be doing, someone could be benefitted by it. Being conscious of your contribution will keep you inspired.
Sadhguru(萨古鲁):另一个重要的方面是不断受到鼓舞。思考一下你做一件事的动机,从更大的维度上去思考那些你生命中点点滴滴的行动带来的贡献。人类采取的每一个行动都对这个世界的某个层面有贡献。无论你此刻在做什么,某个人可能因此得益。觉察自己的贡献将持续地鼓舞你。
